Fikayo Tomori wants to stay at AC Milan after advanced talks with Tottenham, according to Sky Italy.
Spurs are looking to add a defender before Monday's 11pm transfer deadline and the 27-year-old was one of a number of options the club were looking at.
Postecoglou's side have been severely hindered by defensive injuries throughout the current campaign.
Postecoglou said on Friday Cristian Romero is still a few weeks away from a return, while fellow centre-back Radu Dragusin picked up an injury in Thursday's Europa League home win over Elfsborg.
Bayern Munich forward Mathys Tel has also rejected a move to Tottenham in the past 24 hours after the clubs had agreed a £50m deal.
